This pattern was chosen by Cindi because it looked exactly like the flower girl dress she loved at David's Bridal. She chose a linen-look washable rayon. The fabric was easy to sew and has a beautiful drape. The pattern was simple - two bodice and two skirt pieces. I had problems with the zipper and the armhole linings. But after removing the zipper one time, the second time was a charm. I decided to line the bodice with a fabric from Hancocks - it has a St. Jude pattern.
As the sewing progressed, I decided to make extra sashes for Hannah to have variety when she wears the dress. She has three sashes - melon, pink, St. Jude pattern. She can wear this dress to other party occasions.
I plan to use the pattern again for a light weight denim jumper - for winter wear with a turtleneck.
Hannah and Melissa loved the dress. Cindi also loved the dress and this made me happy....
